Plan Now To Be a Part of the ARCHIVES 2015 EXPO: The Premier International Archives and Information Technology Expo
79th Annual Meeting of the Society of American Archivists (SAA)
Cleveland Convention Center
Conference Dates: August 16–22
Exposition Dates: August 20–21
In August 2015, Cleveland will become the ARCHIVES capital of the world! You’ll have access to the year’s largest audience of archives, records, and information professionals who are eager to learn about your products and services, ask questions, and provide their perspectives. The ARCHIVES 2015 Expo brings together—in one place and at one time—the purchasing decision makers at the national, state, and local levels. Take advantage of their great ideas—and share a few of your own!
Join the Archives, Records, and Information professions’ decision makers in the ARCHIVES 2015 Expo Hall |
“Building relationships is what this Expo is all about. When I make a purchasing decision for my organization, who I’m buying from is as important to me as what I’m buying. I just don’t have that same comfort level with a direct mail flyer or a telemarketing call.”
Elizabeth Adkins, CA
Director, Global Information Management, CSC | “The SAA meeting is our best and most important conference of the year. It has the largest concentration of our customers and provides the best opportunity to meet new ones. We have made so many friends through the years and this conference always serves as a grand reunion!”
